April 2004 - European Supercell This report contains a radar analysis of a potential supercell thunderstorm which developed near Belgium in April 2004.

Fog
Rollers - Oceans In Fog In mid November, 2005, high pressure resulted in lots of low-level fog. Whilst giving grim conditions, a quick trip to the hills of North-east Wales allowed me to get into the sunshine, above the fog. Here, I witnessed an astonishing phenomenon, of large scale waves at the top of the fog. Read on for video, photographs and descriptions of this amazing sight. Info: 16 photos, plus 2 videos. |

December
2006 - The Hundred-Hour Fog High pressure became dominant during the third week of December 2006, allowing fog to become widespread. In parts of the south-east of England, the fog persisted for just over four days, and freezing fog gave icing and rime deposits on trees. We spent a couple of days capturing some of the fog's charactistics. Info: 35 photos. |

Massive
Tree Damage On The Clwydians Whilst on a country-walk on Moel Famau, the highest point on the Clwydian Range in north-east Wales, the EOTS team encounted some tremendous tree-damage. On further investigation, the damage followed a defined track which was not dissimilar to that of tornado damage? Was this a tornado? Was it something more? We present the evidence without a conclusion! Info: 17 photos. |
